爱德华·李(Edward Y. Lee, MD, MPH)是国际上受人尊敬的儿科放射科医生、研究员和教育家,他以创新的技术推动了儿科胸部成像,并为改善世界各地的放射教育做出了不懈的努力,受到广泛认可。目前,Lee是波士顿儿童医院(BCH)和哈佛医学院(HMS)的放射学副教授。他获得了芝加哥大学的AB和MD (Phi Beta Kappa和Swift学者)和哈佛大学的MPH (Student Marshal),随后在哈佛医学中心进行内科实习,并在马林克罗特放射学研究所/华盛顿大学医学中心进行诊断实习。2005年,他在BCH和HMS担任儿科放射学研究员后,加入了放射学系。在他被任命为胸腔成像主任(2010-2021年)和MRI主任(2012-2014年)期间,Lee博士在BCH整合了最佳的成像性能和所有形式的儿童胸部疾病的解释,同时促进了儿童放射学的全球实践。
A longtime ARRS member, presently, Lee is chair of the pediatric imaging section for the Instructional Course Committee, course director for the 2022 Annual Meeting Sunday Session, “Reading Cases With the Experts: An Interactive Session,” and an International Outreach Committee ambassador for the Korean Society of Radiology, an ARRS Global Partner. Both a pediatric imaging section editor (2017–2020) and assistant editor (2010–2016) for ARRS’ ownAmerican Journal of Roentgenology, his additional service includes chairing the pediatric imaging sections of the Case-Based Review Course (2009–2015), reviewing Annual Meeting scientific abstracts and educational exhibits alike for more than a decade, and joining many other committees, subcommittees, and task forces.
A visionary and effective leader, Lee has made significant contributions to societies and organizations at every level. Locally, he served as president of the Medical Staff Organization at BCH. Regionally, he served as president of the New England Roentgen Ray Society. Nationally, he founded and chaired theThoracic Imaging Committee of the Society for Pediatric Radiology(SPR). As prior chair of the pediatric section of the American Board of Radiology’s Core Education Committee (responsible for initial certification of residents) and current pediatric section chair of the Online Longitudinal Assessment Committee (responsible for recertification of practicing radiologists), Lee has been instrumental in establishing in-training and qualification criteria for radiologists in the United States. Internationally, he founded and served as president of the International Society of Pediatric Thoracic Imaging and is presently the chair for the Pediatric Thoracic Committee of the World Federation of Pediatric Imaging.
Lee has received various grants for his pioneering and prolific work, including the GE Radiology Research Academic Fellowship, a research seed grant from the Society of Thoracic Imaging, as well as pilot, seed, and research fellowship grants from the SPR. Known for seminal research in noninvasive advanced imaging for children with various thoracic disorders—particularly in lung and large airway MRI, MDCT (2D/3D, large airway, pulmonary embolism), and evaluating new lung disorders (e.g., H1N1, MERS, SARS, and COVID-19)—his original work has resulted in various awards, including SPR’s prestigious John Caffey Award. Having published more than 200 peer-reviewed articles, 196 reviews, chapters, and editorials, and seven highly regarded pediatric radiology textbooks, three of these titles (Pediatric Thoracic Imaging,Pediatric Pulmonary Imaging, andPediatric Body MRI) were the first in the history of pediatric radiology. In addition, he has served on the editorial boards of more than 20 prestigious radiology journals and as a reviewer for over 35 journals, highlighted by his Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Editorial Fellowship, Editor’s Recognition, and Distinguished Editorial Service awards. In these roles, Lee has helped establish and guide the educational growth and scientific direction of his specialty at academic and medical institutions across the globe.
